DC Comics says it is prepping its readers and fans for its upcoming relaunch in late summer, offering up a free guide to its multiple relaunches of comic characters and series.

The guide is called "DC Comics — The New 52." The publisher says it will be given away free starting July 20 at comic book shops and at the annual Comic-Con International in San Diego, which starts next week.

Besides a six-page preview of the upcoming "Justice League" No. 1, the guide will have covers for all 52 new series, sketches and details from writers and artists.

The new series are also part of DC's move to sell digital copies of comics the same day that the printed ones are sold in stores.
